In an age where a click can get anything delivered to your doorstep and money transfers take mere seconds, one can’t help but ask: why isn’t creating social impact on educational institutions just as simple?

With the vision of #2047 Shikshit Bharat, Viksit Bharat, TrueGiv is striving to answer this very question. As a tech-driven NGO, the company has developed a cutting-edge platform that seamlessly connects CSR partners and individual donors with educational institutions in need—irrespective of geography. By simplifying the process of identifying, funding, and fulfilling school requirements in just a few clicks, it is democratising CSR and making educational support more accessible, transparent, and impactful.

India is the first country to legally mandate corporate social responsibility , yet a significant gap remains between available CSR funds and the communities that need them most. In FY 2022–23, a considerable portion of the budgeted CSR amount—across both listed and unlisted companies—was either left unspent or deposited into Government funds.

This raises a critical question: is there a disconnect between CSR funding and ground-level educational needs?

The disparity is evident in the numbers. Bihar, home to 9% of India’s population, recorded zero CSR spending, highlighting the urgent need for more equitable distribution mechanisms.

This is precisely where TrueGiv steps in. By harnessing technology, the NGO bridges this gap by connecting CSR contributors directly with verified, under-resourced schools across India, including states such as Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and more. The platform eliminates bureaucratic hurdles, ensuring that support reaches schools swiftly, while maintaining complete transparency.

Since its inception, the company has facilitated multiple successful projects, transforming learning environments in some of India’s most remote and underserved regions. Schools such as Mahatma Gandhi Government School, Toorwara (Dausa), Rajkiya Prathmik Vidyalaya, and Rajkiya Government Primary School in Rajasthan have received essential resources including furniture, sports equipment, blackboards, chalk, and even music systems—tailored to their specific requests.

With plans to expand nationwide, the organisation is steadily spreading its reach and is currently working on several projects in West Bengal and the North-East.

“At our core, we believe that businesses have a responsibility to contribute to the communities they serve. CSR is not just a mandate for us—it’s a reflection of our values and our commitment to inclusive growth. In our search for a partner, transparency and impact were non-negotiable. The company’s technology platform delivered on both fronts—offering clear visibility into fund utilisation, robust accountability, and the assurance that our CSR contributions are making a meaningful difference where it matters most,” says Mr Vijayakumar Sriramagiri, managing director, India Power Tools Business, Ingersoll Rand Technologies and Services Private Limited.

“Our mission is simple: no child should be left behind because of a lack of resources, no matter where they live or study. Education is a right, not a privilege. By blending technology with compassion, we’re building a scalable, transparent model that channels CSR funds directly to the grassroots level,” says Sumit, founder, TrueGiv.

The company invites socially responsible companies and philanthropists to join this movement. Because when committed individuals come together and harness technology for good, the impact is real—and every child receives the support they deserve.
